It has begun. The new year is not quite so new, and January is making it’s mark on the Beaufoix household once more.
But in a good way.
Hooraaaaaay
There have been no break ups
No sudden need to find a new home
Infact, January is actually plodding along quite happily, and dare I say it, so are we.
Shhhhhhh though. Don’t say it out loud, because then there could be jinxing.
A huowge rancid ham might fall from the sky and break our car.
Sea urchins might invade our house causing it to be declared a National Wildlife Sanctuary and we will only be allowed to reside here if we wear tin foil underpants and Edd the Duck T Shirts.

(Yes I really found a picture of some tinfoil underpants. You could so wear these.)
OR someone will hijack our rabbits and drive them all the way to Skeggy.
Tsk.
So, Beaufoixs = good.
Miss E = happy smiling child.
Miss M = happy smiling soon to be 7-year-old child.
Mummy = heavier but happier, still hormone free, hot flushes aplenty, but hopeful.
Rabbits = furry
Gerbil = noisy
Granny = Happy Birthday
Car = chuggy
2012 = GOOD
How is your 2012?

I KNOW!!!!
It’s mad. How did they get to 7 so fast? M’s is the 25th and she and her friend are planning a cinema party. Seriously, I’m not sure they even need us!!
January 10th, 2012 at 11:38 pm
Busy! I’m already sick of it! Well, not entirely true, but it is too busy for my tastes.
I need some tinfoil undies, though.
Not.
January 11th, 2012 at 9:32 am
Hee hee, babe you could seriously rock the tin foil undie look. Hope 2012 slows down a bit for you.
January 11th, 2012 at 8:52 am
Jo, you disappoint me – I thought you made those tinfoil underpants especially for this post! Happy New Year madam, hope to see you some time in 2012, x
January 11th, 2012 at 9:33 am
Pots I was honestly going to, then I thought, ‘hmmmm I wonder what I will find if I do a search…’ Et voila!
Happyt New Year lovely. xx

Happy 2012 Jo! Glad yours is plodding along nicely – that’s the best you can hope for in January I’d say. Mine, unfortunately, has started with a splat rather than a swing…all good New Year intentions blown away by my flipping snotty nose that is driving me bonkers now! At least I have the left over xmas choccies to keep me smiling until at least February! x
January 15th, 2012 at 8:48 pm
Awww chocolates have special powers. Hope you feel much better soon writeonmum. x

January 15th, 2012 at 8:49 pm
I feel like that too lovely Nora. Though I hardly dare say it.
January 12th, 2012 at 4:33 am
Full of good stuff too. I hope. Glad has got off to such a fab start.
PS Where can I get some of those tine foil knickers. They’re kinda haute. x
January 12th, 2012 at 9:09 pm
May the good continue for 2012! Sounds like a great start anyway……loving those undies btw!!
January 15th, 2012 at 8:50 pm
They are soooo haute you mad woman.
Hope your new year is fantabulous. x
January 13th, 2012 at 8:16 am
HNY to you and the girls! Sounds like it’s going well. Love the pants, and you could stick your cheese and pickle sarnies down there for safe keeping.
Mya x

Only today was I pondering the fact that the phrase “a pair of pants” is going out of use. Similarly “a pair of trousers”. These days, people just talk about “pants” or “trousers”. You have proved my point. You didn’t make mention of “a pair of tinfoil pants”. Just plain old “tinfoil underpants”.
And why did we all use to say “a pair of pants” anyway? It’s only one garment. Two legholes, yes, but then the logic would be to say “a pair of legholes” and I’ve never heard that.
A pair of Happy New Years to you!

Iota I love you. You know a few weeks ago me and some of my friends were having coffee and discussing the weirdness that we have a ‘pair of pants’ for one bottom, and yet just ‘a’ bra for two boobs. Language is strange.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAY Bos!
Ours started out pants with Richard ill for the first half of January morealess but I think it’s looking up, he’s better now. And cooking dinner, get in.
January 15th, 2012 at 8:58 pm
Glad he’s doing better now sweetie. Hope he’s cooked up something fabulous. Hugs. xx
